Book excerpt: "A totally engrossing and brilliantly researched examination of Africa as Americans saw it at what my have been its most crucial stage of development. Even though outward signs indicated neither resentment nor truculence but almost total passivity, during the years from 1919 to 1939 Africa was in fact invisibly poised on the brink of independence." -- From publisher's statement on jacket flap.
